She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 925:

“Yes.”

Ellis murmured, “Give me a kiss.” His lips curved into a lovely smile as his rich voice carried a mischievous fascination.

Freya stopped. A kiss?

With an indulgent tone, Ellis gave her a slight forehead flick. “Look at the blossom in the center. Inside is a gift that is concealed. Don’t you want to have a look?”

After closely examining the bouquet, Freya discovered a necklace tucked somewhere among the flowers.

Bracelets, necklaces, and earrings had never really appealed to her. She hardly ever wore jewelry unless it was for a formal occasion. She hadn’t purchased any for herself over the years.

However, as she gazed at the necklace tucked away among the flowers, she began to grow fonder of it.

She plucked it out, turning it over in her hands, a small smile creeping onto her lips without her noticing.

Ellis caught her reaction and knew he’d nailed the gift.

Every girl wanted to feel cherished. Freya, for all her strength and always looking out for others, was still just a girl who deserved to be cherished and loved.

“Captain.”

“Yes?”

Freya’s eyes shimmered with feeling as she pushed up on her toes and brushed a quick kiss across his cheek.

Ellis wasn’t ready for that. He went still, the soft graze of her lips on his skin like a feather tickling his heart.

Before he could soak it in, Freya was already bolting with the flowers.

Ellis watched her vanish through the doorway, his fingers grazing where her lips had been. His smile deepened, eyes glinting with amusement. Freya kissed him.

He didn’t chase after her.

He knew she might seem cool as ice, but she was surprisingly shy about this stuff. As her boyfriend, he had to give her space.

Only when Freya shut her bedroom door did it hit her what she’d done. Her heart was racing, the memory of tipping up to kiss Ellis looping in her head like a stuck record.

She pinched the bridge of her nose. How’d she lose her cool and kiss him?

Once she’d calmed down, she set the flowers in the study and googled what makes a good gift for a boyfriend.

Nothing she found felt quite right.

Out of ideas, she fired off a message to Greta and Riley. “What’s a solid gift for a guy?”

Greta and Riley were stumped.

Curiosity lit up, and Greta asked, “Who’s it for?”

Was it Kristian? Or someone else? Did Ellis know?

Freya typed back, “Not for me. A friend’s picking something for her boyfriend but can’t decide what works.”

Greta wasn’t buying it—she thought it was Freya.noveldrama

But then she remembered Ellis saying he’d only confess to Freya after dealing with Kristian, so it couldn’t be him.

Riley chimed in, “Depends on your friend’s budget.”
